This would have been a great idea, but the White House theater was located in the East Wing…and alas, it’s gone.
The White House needs to screen the new film Nuremberg for Donald.

How can we brag we’re the greatest country on earth when we're willing to let people die from starvation while Billionaires just keep making more money?
Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.
That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.
Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

Nuclear testing isn’t something you greenlight in a post, but turning national security into a fear show is how authoritarians rule.

For whatever it's worth the entire illusion of Stephen Miller's power comes from publicity. He has no legitimate authority or control whatsoever. His role in the administration is that of deputy chief of staff. He is an errand boy they let talk shit on camera because it absorbs liability & scrutiny.

this is also a very basic concept I learned in seventh grade civics.
If Stephen Miller had paid attention in con law, he’d know:
Congress controls the money.
Courts interpret the law.
The president doesn’t get to shout “You’re fired!” at the entire civil service when he loses a budget fight.

Sociopaths and the uber-greedy have been problematic for every society ever, however their ever-tightening grip on politics, esp. in the US, greatly ups the ante.
They are now the #1 threat to civilization and human life.
If the rest of us are to survive, they must be eliminated from public life.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.
UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.
Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

And just think, if these wonderful benevolent billionaires would just pay their share of taxes we might not even be having a government shut down.
Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.
Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.
These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.
This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.
Every American should reject it.

If we had a news media they could tell the public that corporations and billionaires are BUYING favorable treatment by a President who sells favorable treatment, and at the same time, they're cutting services to the poor and middle class, and will hollow out the country to feed the super-rich.

Why is no one else asking what happened to everything in the East Wing - art, photos, furniture, historical treasures? To properly store everything would take weeks, yet there were no reports of this happening. So much history! Where is it!!

Did Trump just give it away to his buddies? Is it at Mar-a-Lago? Did Jared and Ivana just help themselves to it?
